LAST week I dragged myself out of bed to head behind the scenes at the OSMAN AW14-15 show, thanks to the lovely ladies and gents at Purple PR. Despite the raging flu and husky man-voice, I managed to get a few words out of Tigi's Creative Director Nick Irwin who explained the beauty look.

Having just flown back from New York that day, Nick made sure to keep the hair relaxed and natural, working with the model's tresses as opposed to against them. Using the CATWALK BY TIGI Curlesque Lightweight Mousse and CATWALK BY TIGI Session Series Work It Hairspray, he shaped the hair away from the face by plaiting and pinning the strands in place, giving a streamline finish that complimented the strong cobalt eyes, courtesy of Maybelline.

After the hustle and bustle of the backstage I found myself sitting at one of the best seats in the house - only a few steps away from the absolute dreams that were the shoes. Furry winter boots? Count me in.
